Grants Obtained for the Vernal Pool Habitat Project!

We are happy to announce the receipt of several grants that have been obtained to support Leap into Action's vernal pool habitat project. We received $1,500 from the Aquarium and Zoo Facilities Association (AZFA) Clark Waldram Conservation Fund, $750 from the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo Cans for Conservation Fund and $500 from the Amphibian Taxon Advisory Group. And of course, all of these grants have been matched dollar for dollar by Cleveland Zoological Society, for a grand total of $5,500!

Along with sales of passports and other donations, we are well on our way to meeting our $10,000 fundraising goal for the project. What can you do today to help amphibians thrive in Northeast Ohio?

Since you are so close to your goal, you should increase it so that you can help even more amphibians!

Long Live the FRogs!
